Use the form below to upload files, to view or search previously uploaded images go to the list of uploaded files, uploads and deletions are also logged in the upload log.
When uploading PNG files, please make sure they are saved in indexed mode prior to uploading them (see also: GIMP tutorial). This reduces their size significantly.
To include the image in a page, use a link in the form [[{{ns:image}}:File.jpg]], [[{{ns:image}}:File.png|alt text]] or [[{{ns:media}}:File.ogg]] for directly linking to the file.
